dancing girl goes to Italy
dancing girl plays in Italy, and by the looks of the thread on the carpet, she better vacuum the floor.....;-p

am loving the "dancing girl" motif, so here she is again, only smaller--this actually might become part of a series......

and the final projects for the week
working on this felted piece--I washed wool sweaters purchased at the thrift store in hot water until they "felted" although the technically correct term, I believe is "fulled" then cut them into squares and using a hand needle felter I attached colored wool roving (wool before it is spun into yarn) and then embellished. I used the "felted" sleeves of the sweater to make hand warmers.
